It requires all corporate entities, including those that are not incorporated, with employees in Washington to register with the ESD by providing "the names and social security numbers of the owners, partners, members, or corporate officers of the business, as well as their mailing addresses and telephone numbers and other information the commissioner may by rule prescribe."
